Hooray!! Thank you for finishing and it doesn't matter! We both knew you were incredibly busy juggling work, mothering and helping your husband while posting a poem a day!

Congratulations! Writing daily poems is not easy. I know, I write 2 a day, every day. But the more you practice the easier they come.

I admire your perseverance and staying with the April contest. Many people would've just given up when they got behind a couple of days. But use labored on and got through the full 30 days. Patricia.

Debra,

This is a excellent write recalling this past month's NaPoWriMo's contest. I missed entering the initial contest on April first, but managed to write 20 poems for my first book in the second contest before the deadline. The challenge to write on the fly and create something new each day was inspiring and most satisfying. I now have the confidence needed to proceed with creating a number of books here on Fanstory in preparation for future publishing.

All the best,

Eugene

Congratulations Debra! I think that's an amazing achievement! Lovely, smooth flowing rhyming verse to complete the job, testament to stamina! Maybe mow a 10k (only joking)? Take care Debbie

    Ah, thank you so much, Debbie, for your lovely feedback and for sticking with me throughout the challenge!
    I did actually go for a run this morning - another 5k, a different route, but in exactly the same time as last time! 10k is beyond my reach at the moment, but I'll get there... I know I've got it in me! LOL Best wishes as always, Debra x

Hi Debra,
This is a good ending poem for such a hard task to do. Writing a poem a day is hard because life has other things that need to be done that may be more important.
Congrats for finishing.
Keep writing and stay healthy.
Joan
